Ew. *thanks nose*

Well, you know it takes a certain kind of people to go to these things, myself included. But I go because I want to hear the panels, I like the show, and I want to talk to people who like the show. I want to have lots of geeky fun, stuff I can't do as my normal alter ego.

And the Jack and Sam fans don't bother me and I simply loathe that character pairing. It's actually some of the fans for a particular character that I love that scare me.

I am excited to meet Cliff. I've realized that all the people that I've ever not really had an interest in ended up being very cool, so now I just excited to meet everyone. They all have their own surprises.

I want Teryl. I missed in at the last NJ con I went to (was in line to have photo taken with MS) and she didn't go to Boston.

Wow sounds like you had fun with Peter Williams! Guh! He was so sweet and doesn't look as old as the math says he should be. Wow. That sounds fantastic.

In Boston, I rode the elevator with Tony Amendola. Sweetest man ever. We chatted about New England (he's visits the Cape a lot) and then later at the dessert party we had a nice chat about archaeology and anthropology. Fun!

Unfortunately, I tend to turn to goo around MS. *sigh* For once, I'd like to act like a normal person.

Whatever could you mean? ;-) I wasn't so fond of the bizarre and vocal Jack/Sam fans at Gatecon but I imagine some of the unmentioned character's fans were equally obnoxious. Mostly, I made those comments to needle majorsamfan and triciabyrne1978, my S/J buds. :)

Absolutely. It may be the big three who sell the tickets - and yes, it's fun to see them - but I've found every single person from the Stargate cast/crew whom I've "met" to be very nice people and each has added to the con experience.

Teryl, Don, and Peter have always impressed me by generously giving of themselves and making a concerted effort to connect with the con-goers. I'm sure whatever happens I'll have fun. Even if every guest turned out to be a dud, the friends I've made would be fun to hang with and drown our sorrows.

MS always turns my brain to mush, too. I have to have other people around to talk for me. I'm such a dweeb.

Not afraid of needles...

:-}

But what about...tickling!

Depends on who's doing it. Now if you can get RDA on board...

There are few who would object, I should think.
